NZ 33-0 (6 ovs) vs India 306-7 | Scorecard

Allen flicks the first ball from Thakur in the gap through midwicket for two runs.

The pacer follows it up with a virtually unplayable delivery, as the length ball pitched on around off and middle stump, jags away sharply to beat Allen all ends up and he must consider himself lucky not to have edged it.

Allen picks a single and Conway also takes one to get four from the over.

Arshdeep continues but not before a chat with vice-captain Pant after he had gone for some runs in his previous over.

He makes the mistake of bowling it in the slot, overpitched and full, and Conway plays a beautiful cover drive for a four.

Arshdeep errs with his length as he tries get some swing but to no avail. He immediately shortens his length a bit as Conway picks a single.

The last ball is short as Allen goes for the pull but gets the top edge which flies fine on the leg side for a six.

Not a good start for Arshdeep in ODIs as he gives away 25 runs in three overs.

Thakur doing well from the other end. He has settled into a good rhythm not overpitching or too short, keeping it in the right areas.

Conway plays out a maiden over from Thakur, as New Zealand reaching 33 for no loss in six overs.
